• Kidney Transplant

Of the types of kidney transplants, the cadaveric renal transplant and living donor kidney transplant is so differentiated owing to the nature of the donor whether deceased or alive respectively. The word preemptive defines the kind of kidney transplant wherein the kidney is replaced prior to the point where your kidneys deteriorate so that you would need dialysis. It is also important to check if the transplanted kidney is working properly or not and regular checkups post the surgery are required to do so..
